a history of violence

I'm Lux, a twenty-something-year-old college student who enjoys history, sarcasm, intelligence and a quick wit. Very much an old soul, I am a future doctorate candidate for history a la World War II and novelist. I spend my free time reading about demons, conspiracy theories, time travel and the magic bullet that killed JFK.

My biggest weaknesses include expensive alcohol, Red Dawn parodies and dashing young men dressed in 1940s military garb.

I mean, besides the potrait of Churchill and Stalin imma get on mah low3r back

But seriously, I'm so stoked. I'm getting a single round ~.762 fmj~ behind my right ear. It's symbolizes my passions and reminds me to harden the fuck up because I'm not storming a beach rn okay, and is also a tribute of sorts for all the troops who've stopped one of these.

anyways /cool story bro ramble felt you could appreciate maybe even probably not lame idea i know

Dude, I can see that as a fairly badass tattoo. I’m sure people would be like LOL WHY? WHAT? but man, it’s simple and yet completely elegant. I can see it.

I need all this for painting:

  • Bristle brushes (4)
  • Acrylic paints
  • 20, 11x14 cut matte boards
  • Large palette
  • Palette knife
  • Acrylic gesson

It sucks, because I have most of this (paints, and brushes) but I was told I need them new. Fuck you. I have a 40% coupon for Michael’s and while they’re having a buy one-get one free sale on acrylics, I doubt it’s going to make a big difference in the overall price.

A day came when I should have died, and after that nothing seemed very important. So I have stayed as I am, without regret, separated from the normal human condition.

I know exactly how that is. To love somebody who doesn’t deserve it. Because they are all you have. Because any attention is better than no attention. For exactly the same reason, it is sometimes satisfying to cut yourself and bleed. On those gray days where eight in the morning looks no different from noon and nothing has happened and nothing is going to happen and you are washing a glass in the sink and it breaks-accidentally-and punctures your skin. And then there is this shocking red, the brightest thing in the day, so vibrant it buzzes, this blood of yours. That is okay sometimes because at least you know you’re alive.
